4.00Our travel guide was very good. Trip was informative and comfortable. I would recommend better communication about the type of vehicle picking up its passengers and the company name on the van.

5.00A great way to learn about the Charleston harbor, the Ashley and Cooper Rivers and Ft. Sumpter. The boat captain was excellent- not only in navigation, but also in clarity in speaking on the PA system. I definitely recommend this cruise. Parking availability.

It meets at the Visitors Center

4.00Nick was a fun guide, and I would recommend the tour. TripAdvisor has some problems that need to be fixed. The tour meets at the visitors center; TA provides no address or meeting place. Parking is VERY expensive in Charlestown, so moving a car around is not ideal. Had I known we were to meet the tour at the visitors center, I would have parked there instead of several blocks away. BTW, there is no street address posted for the visitor center either. This made it very difficult for my handicapped husband.
Great historic Charleston tour.

5.00What a wonderful tour. The van is neat and clean, slightly cramped if full. Nick was very knowledgeable and informative about the history of Charleston. He wove his way around the city sharing information about the historiy of buildings and the city itself. Highly recommend this tour.
